Love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation – Kahlil Kibron
Camilla Myers decides that her marriage is over, never anticipating that the split would be uniquely destructive. Later, she ruminates:
"I know now that when I decided to end my marriage, I deceived myself, thinking that a divorce would bring relief from the pain I felt. I never considered the exceptional power of love and the wake of disaster that can follow an attempt to put it aside In the dark hours of night, my guard often collapses and shame refuses me the mercy of rest. I tremble, fearing that I will never experience an ordinary moment again."
A rapid succession of events occurs as a family unravels. But each member remembers the bonds that sealed them and struggles to return to a place of stability. We are repeatedly reminded of the tenacity and endurance of love.
